General Specifications:
Dials: Aluminum, black figures on white background. Custom dials, logos, etc. are available - consult factory.
Dial sizes: 1.5", 2", 2.5", 3", 3.5", 4", 4.5", and 6" dials are standard.
Pointers: Balanced black aluminum pointers are standard on most models. Adjustable pointers are standard on
series PR and PT, and are available on certain other models.
Windows: Glass, plastic, laminated safety, and tempered glass are available.
Cases: Case materials are black steel, stainless steel, phenolic and ABS plastic. Series PC, PD, PH and PL cases are
intended for dry service; all other cases can be filled at the factory, or in the field. Series PT features solid
front design, which provides maximum safety with a solid wall between the window and the Bourdon tube. The
entire rear of the case is designed to blow out and provide pressure relief should the Bourdon tube fail due to over
pressure, corrosion, or fatigue.
Movements: The movement is the heart of the pressure gauge; its function is to accurately position the pointer in
response to movement of the Bourdon tube. Reotemp movements are designed for smooth movement, low friction,
and minimal play. Reotemp movements use high precision gears and low friction bearings to enhance performance,
reduce hysteresis, and provide long-term accuracy and reliability. The effects of vibration on the movement can be
reduced by liquid filling of the case, which both dampens movement, and lubricates contact points. For
dry gauges, a special silicone dampened movement can be installed.
Bourdon Tubes: To suit a variety of media applications, Reotemp Bourdon tubes are available in phosphor bronze,
AISI 316 stainless steel, and monel. If the process fluid is not compatible with any of these materials, a chemical
(diaphragm) seal may be necessary. Reotemp Bourdon tubes undergo special heat treating to reduce hysteresis effects,
relieving localized stresses in the solder or weld zones and enhancing long-term accuracy of the gauge.
Warranty: REOTEMP warrants all pressure gauges and pressure products against defective
workmanship or materials under normal use and service for one year following date of shipment.
Reotemp's liability is limited to repair or replacement at the factory, shipping charges prepaid.
This warranty does not cover deterioration from normal wear and tear, exposure to corrosive
materials, exposure to temperatures or pressures in excess of those recommended, excessive
vibration, or forces or abrasion which cause deformation of component parts. This warranty is expressly
in lieu of any other warranty, expressed or implied. Reotemp shall not be liable for
any direct or consequential damages arising out of any defects or from any cause whatsoever.

To ensure safety, accuracy, and gauge life, good practice requires consideration of the following factors when select-
ing a pressure gauge:
Pressure Ranges: Reotemp Bourdon tube pressure gauges can measure pressures from full vacuum to 40,000 psi.
Generally, a range of twice the working pressure is recommended, with maximum working pressure not exceeding 75%
of the range. If pulsation occurs, working pressure should not exceed 65% of the range. Never use a gauge at pres-
sure greater than the maximum range on the dial. Pounds per square inch (psi) ranges are standard, and several alter-
nate single and dual ranges are available (see Ranges, p.14).
Pressurized Fluid Properties Composition: All pressure gauge components should be selected to suit the character-
istics of the fluid being measured. For steam service, a siphon is required. For corrosive chemicals, stainless steel
(or monel) wetted parts, or a diaphragm seal should be considered (monel wetted parts are available on special order).
For fluids that solidify or leave deposits, a diaphragm seal should be considered. For oxidizing fluids, no oil should
be present .
Process Temperature: Gauges with stainless steel wetted parts have welded tube and socket, and will withstand
750°F (400°C). Gauges with soldered copper alloy joints will withstand 150°F (65°C); with silver brazed joints,
250°F (120°C). Maximum process temperatures should only be reached intermittently to avoid rupture, and may result
in loss of calibration or damage to other parts of the gauge.
Ambient Temperature: Normal ambient temperature limits for Reotemp pressure gauges are -30°F to 150°F
(-35°C to +65°C) for dry gauges, and 23°F to 140°F (-5°C to +60°C) for glycerine filled gauges. Reotemp gauges
are calibrated at 70°F (20°C). Change in ambient temperature causes +/–0.3% error per 18°F (10°C) rise/fall,
respectively. Ambient error for Reotemp test gauges is +/–0.05% per +/–18°F (10°C), respectively.
In very hot ambient conditions, a gauge can be remotely mounted using a diaphragm seal and/or capillary, to
place the gauge in a cooler spot.
Moisture and Weather Effects: Case material should be chosen with atmospheric conditions in mind. For
outdoor use, stainless steel or plastic cases are recommended. Case filling with glycerine can prevent con-
densation in case.
Severe Conditions: In applications involving severe pulsation, the use of snubbers and/or restrictors is
recommended. Also, for vibrating or pulsating applications, liquid filling will help prevent wear and extend the
service life of the gauge. Glycerine is the standard fill material. Also available (with special gasketing) are
silicone and Halocarbon. Halocarbon, though quite costly, is recommended for service with oxidizing agents
such as oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, chlorine, nitric acid, etc.
Mounting Method: NPT connections are located in the center back ( ), lower back ( ), or bottom ( ) of the
case in most models. Rear flanges (also known as "back flanges" or "wall flanges") are available for surface
mounting. For panel mounting, front flanges or "U" or "O" clamps are available. Special threads (BSP, Metric, SAE)
are also available; consult Reotemp Customer Service. All Reotemp pressure gauges should be mounted in the
upright position.
Accuracy: Gauges are available with accuracies from +/–0.25% (ASME grade 3A ) to +/–3/2/3% (ASME grade B).
Percent accuracies are expressed as percent of full scale. As a rule, higher accuracies are found in larger gauges, and/or
reflect more costly components.

Due to the
compact nature of the ¾" triclamp fractional seal, several factors can
affect accuracy. Use of the fractional seal generally involves a
compromise in performance for the convenience of the small size.
The fractional sanitary gauge provides repeatable pressure reference
in a stable temperature environment, but the larger 1 ½" or 2"
triclamp seals are recommended for greater accuracy whenever
possible.
The REOTEMP P fractional gauge is calibrated using a
standard ¾" Buna gasket. When choosing a gasket for installation,
care should be taken so the gasket does not push on the diaphragm.
The fractional seal's temperature effect varies with the
range selected, but is generally greater than +/- 0.5% per 10 °F
change in process temperature. The fractional seal is recommended
for stable process temperatures from 40°F to 120°F.
The fractional seal is most accurate in ranges
over 160 psi.

DIAPHRAGM SEALS
I NTRODUCTION
REOTEMP Diaphragm Seals (or Chemical Seals) use a
flexible barrier, or diaphragm, to isolate a pressure sensor
(gauge, switch, transmitter, or transducer) from adverse effects
of the process fluid.
Diaphragm seals are useful to:
1.) Protect the sensor from the process media
(corrosive, abrasive, viscous, or crystallizing media)
2.) Protect the process from the sensor (sanitary process
requiring clean-out, or high purity media).
HOW IT WORKS:
A diaphragm seal, when properly mounted to its sensor and
filled, will accurately transmit process pressure to the instru-
ment. Pressure exerted on the flexible diaphragm is transmit-
ted hydraulically to the instrument through the fill fluid, which
fills the void between the diaphragm and the instrument,
(including the bourdon tube, in the case of a pressure gauge.)

PRESSURE TRANSMITTERS TRANS P LINE
REOTEMP TRANS-P LINE Pressure Transmitters and Transducers * all convert applied
pressure to an electrical signal that can be interpreted by a computer or other interpretive device, where it can
be used to display or control a process variable.
Output: Reotemp transmitters produce either a 4-20 mA signal (the most common output), or a variety of
voltage outputs, such as 1-5 VDC and 0-10 VDC (3 wire).
Sensors: Piezoresistive diffused semiconductor technology is standard for pressures up to 300 psi. For higher
pressures (up to 60,000 psi), sputtered thin film technology is used. These sensors are exceptionally stable,
shock resistant, and durable. Our piezoresistive and thin-film sensors are made with no epoxies or bonding
agents, virtually eliminating signal instability or drift.
Unit Integrity: Sensor durability, along with mechanical integrity of the stainless case and all-welded process
connection, produce a rugged instrument designed to provide consistent performance under severe industrial
conditions.
Accuracy: Accuracies from 0.5% to 0.025% are available. Each unit is temperature compensated to provide
stable accuracy over large ambient variations and long periods of time.
Ready to Go: Whether shipped alone or with a Digital Indicator, each Reotemp transmitter is inspected and
calibrated prior to shipment to assure it is 100% “Ready to Go” right out of the box!
Large Transmitter Stock: Reotemp stocks many transmitter models in a large variety of ranges, mainly with 4-
20 mA output, because of their popularity. See the range table on page 39 for indication of our in-stock
offering.
*Transmitter or Transducer? “Transmitter” is often used when referring to a pressure sensor with variable
current (mA) output, whereas “Transducer” usually implies voltage output. For simplicity, we use the term
“transmitter” for all sensors offered in this catalog.
Trademarks: These non-Reotemp trademarks are used in this catalog, and are the property of their respective
owners: Teflon®, Iso-ring®, Tri-Clamp®, In-line Seal®, Hastelloy®, Neobee®, Hirschmann®.
WARRANTY
REOTEMP Instrument Corp. warrants all TRANS-P line transmitters against defective workmanship or materials under normal use and service for
three years following date of shipment (for transmitters) and one year (for series DM indicators.) Reotemp’s liability is limited to repair or replacement
at the factory, shipping charges prepaid.
This warranty does not cover deterioration from normal wear and tear, chemical or environmental corrosion, exposure to temperatures, pressures,
or vibration beyond those recommended, or forces or abrasion which cause deformation of component parts.
This warranty is expressly in lieu of any other warranty, expressed or implied. Reotemp shall not be liable for any direct or consequential damages
arising out of any defects or from any cause whatsoever.
All product designs and specifications are subject to change without notice.

SELECTING A TRANSMITTER
Consider the following issues to help you to choose the best pressure transmitter for your application:
1. Special Needs: Series TG (general purpose transmitter) is a good choice for general industrial applications. For special
needs or circumstances, other models will be more suitable:
High Accuracy: Choose series TH for up to 0.1% accuracy (BFSL). For reference, the standard TG
accuracy is 0.5%.)
Hazardous Environments: Consider series TX (intrinsically safe) or series TE (Explosion proof
transmitters.)
Total Submersion: Choose series TS.
Clogging Media: Consider series TG mounted to a diaphragm seal, or series THF, which comes with
flush diaphragm.
Sanitary Applications: Choose series THS, which comes with sanitary Tri-clamp connection.
Low Cost: For OEM use, or for applications where low cost is a necessity, consider series TM.
Local Indication: Consider DM3 digital meter, or XTDM-1 piggy-back display.
2. Pressure Range: Choose a range that places your working pressure at 50% to 90% of the transmitter pressure range.
Pressure spikes up to proof pressure will not harm the transmitter but may affect calibration; pressures beyond burst
pressure will cause damage.
3. Accuracy: Series TG, with 0.5% BFSL accuracy, and with 0.05% repeatability, suits many industrial applications.
Higher accuracies (0.25% and 0.1%) are available, generally at higher cost.
*BFSL (Best Fit Straight Line) expresses maximum deviation from a straight line positioned to minimize
maximum deviation.
4. Output: Current output (4 mA to 20 mA) is the most popular for industrial use because it is less susceptible to electrical
noise and can be transmitted through copper wires up to thousands of feet with little signal loss. Several voltage outputs
are also available, and are suitable for shorter distances. Typical voltage outputs include 0-5 VDC, 1-5 VDC, and 0-10
VDC.
5. Process Connection: 1/4” NPT and 1/2” NPT are the most common connections in industrial process applications. In
hydraulic applications, 7/16-20 UNF SAE male with o-ring seal is commonly used. For sanitary applications, Tri-Clamp
connections on the THS series are available in several sizes, with 1 1/2” triclamp the most common. Other process
connections, such as G1/2, G1, and 1/4”NPT female are available as well.
6. Electrical Connection: All Trans-P series transmitters require wire hookup for both power and output. 4-20 mA output
uses 2 wires, which carry both loop power and output signal (loop current). Voltage output usually uses three wires, with
4 wires available. The standard Hirschmann connector (Din 43650) in standard or mini size allows easy connection to
2, 3, or 4 wires, with internal screw terminals and cable gland. Also available are integral cable (with or without
1/2”NPT male conduit threads), bendix 4- and 6-pin, and M12 types, as well as a Hirschmann with 1/2”NPT female
conduit connection.
7. Severe Conditions: Reotemp Trans-P transmitters are rugged instruments intended for industrial use. However,
temperatures, corrosion, vibration, or pulsation beyond operational limits should be addressed to prolong the life of the
instrument:
High process temperatures: Temperature at the instrument can be lowered by using a dead-leg
extension. Using 1/4” stainless tubing, each 2 inches of extension will lower the process temperature
about 100F. For high temperature with clogging media, a diaphragm seal with capillary can be used.
High Ambient temperatures: The instrument can be removed from the hot zone using piping, tubing,
or capillary with a diaphragm seal.
Corrosive media: A chemically compatible diaphragm seal can isolate the transmitter from the
corrosive media.
Pulsation: Pressure fluctuations in an incompressible fluid can cause damaging pulsation (such as
water hammer). This is a common cause of failure in pressure transducers, and measures should be
taken to avoid this condition. Use of a snubber or restrictor screw (threaded orifice) should be
considered.

Restrictor Screws
A restrictor screw (or throttle screw) is threaded into the process opening of the pressure gauge and helps to dampen rapid pressure
fluctuations. This reduces pointer flutter, and can prolong the life of the gauge. Many REOTEMP industrial gauges are shipped with
restrictor screw installed.
